California Farm Courgetti Strands, Spaghetti Squash and Meatballs California Farm Courgetti Strands, Spaghetti Squash and Meatballs
One of the pleasures of Cookpad is discovering new methods of cooking and new ingredients. This is Cookpad member Genna’s recipe. Thank you, Genna.I had never heard of a spiraler, to make spaghetti from zucchini. So I looked it up.I imitated the contraption with my hand mandolin to make thin strips of zucchini like noodles. Tedious, a spiraler would be much easier.Meatballs from ground pork with oatmeal are also new to me, I usually mix ground pork with ground beef. I premixed boiled steel cut oats and chopped mushrooms with tomato paste, added an egg, then mixed with my farm raised ground pork, 50/50. The meatballs came out super. I also cooked squash spaghetti strands to compare to zucchini courgetti, two vegan noodles side by side. Both dishes are delicious with these meatballs and sauce. Hobby Horseman -
